Disabling sticky keys via group policy

[forsythe_99]

Thanks, you guys are legends

[Busybub]

'Disable Sticky Keys
Set ObjShell = Wscript.CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
RegKey = "HKCU\Control Panel\Accessability\Stickykeys\"
WSHShell.RegWrite regkey & "Flags","506","REG_SZ"

Vbscript version.

Chris, don't suppose you have one which deletes the entire accessibility registry entry?

This is now in the wiki in vbscript form.

I am updating a Dell image at the moment. I have taken this "opportunity" to deny the Students security group access to the Registry keys:

HKCU\Control Panel\Accessability\Stickykeys\

and

HKCU\Control Panel\Accessability\HighContrast

It didn't work! So I have taken the ticks out in Contol Panel/Accessibility Options [Keyboard/Display/General]

We have no users in school at the momnet who would need to use High Contrast so this solution suits me as I am updating the station images anyway.

I have some reg edits if you want them? for sticky keys and high contrast. They take a second to apply

@timbo343: I will give them a try: I have more than one type of station to update and as we know each needs its own image. Thanks.

both high contrast and sticky key patch

Works lovely. May update it to include FilterKeys and ToggleKeys though...

This has just made my day... it has become the new game of our students to change the screens to high res and put sticky keys on! We spoilt their fun with the screen rotation patch for intel gfx.

Thanks guys

That Administrative Template doesn't work because it's wrong. Try this;

CLASS USER

CATEGORY "Additional Settings"

POLICY "Restrict Use of Sticky Keys"

EXPLAIN "This policy disables the use of Sticky Keys"

KEYNAME "Control Panel\Accessibility\StickyKeys"
VALUENAME "Flags"
VALUEON "511"
VALUEOFF "510"

END POLICY

END CATEGORY

Hope this helps ya.
